The following is from a tweet by Mi2 that I just discovered.

Mrs. Akie attended on behalf of former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who received the 38th "Sound Argument Award" special prize.
She said, "Once again, I feel my husband was truly blessed with good people who allowed him to do his job well for this country. My husband's 67 years must have been a happy life as a politician, with more colors in spring, summer, fall, and winter than my father's."
